A few reviewers have mentioned that some evaluative metering systems, when metering a high-contrast scene, will tend to expose for the shadows, which may give an overall overexposure. I've noticed this with the MZ-S, and adjust accordingly when necessary. However, in the vast majority of pictures I take, the system works very well, and agrees quite closely with a hand-held incident meter when I double-check.
Having said that, if center-weighted metering works better for you, go ahead and use it. That's why modern cameras give the user more than one choice of metering system. Pat White
